Kennedy on DOGE: When you trim fat, pigs squeal. The tofu crowd is mad but you know when you trim fat pig squeal that’s just the way the world works that’s a law of nature.
On 3/6/2025, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) put forward a colorful turn of phrase on Fox Business to explain why he was still on board with tech billionaire Elon Musk’s move to dismantle large parts of the federal government through his Department of Government Efficiency task force. “We’re not talking enough — we’re talking about the things we need to do to get high prices down, but we’re not tying them together for the American people, and the Treasury secretary is very good at that,” Kennedy told former President Donald Trump adviser Larry Kudlow. “Most of the publicity has been on the spending cuts, and look, I’m all for them.”
“I think Elon Musk is a rock star,” he continued. “The tofu crowd is mad, but you know, when you trim fat, pigs squeal. That’s just the way the world works.”

“I think President Trump on economics and otherwise is doing very well, but you remember the old saying: ‘The danger of rising high is that the air gets thin.’ I’m worried about the tariffs,” he said in a Thursday evening appearance on Fox Business. “I’m not saying that tariffs are going to cause inflation. President Trump did them in his first term, and they didn’t.”
“I’m saying that we just don’t know, and we’re in very obscure territory. We’re in uncharted waters,” he told host Larry Kudlow. “I think if the tariffs do start to cause inflation, I think the president will back away from them.”
Kennedy said that if the tariffs start to cause more inflation, “we’re going [to] have to recalibrate.”
